This is quite unusual! My friend in NC who does quilting had a quilt stolen out of her car! It was a 3" square string quilt. It had not been quilted as yet. She put it in her car to take to class along with 2 sewing machine, one a featerweight, Her quilt, backing & batting & some one stole it from her car(she Forgot to lock) sitting in her driveway. They did not touch the machines or anything else. We have just been checking around. Quilters, LQS, second hand shops etc. Just wasn't really giving out a lot of info. She lives in Maggie Valley, NC. It had 500 squares in it. She had worked for about 3 mo. on it & was just sick about it.
